  As a Native Oregonian, I love it when I see other Oregonians representing their home State in a good light. Haley Johnsen, from Beaverton, is doing just that. Last night, American Idol aired a performance featuring Haley, Reed Grimm, Elise Testone, and Eben Christian Franckewitz. It was a fant...
